Without the symmetric environment, Test-Dev is very convoluted. It’s disjointed. With coding for the exceptions as the rule, the full System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is disjointed as well. It takes a lot of time and energy to run applications through an asymmetric environment with all its bits and pieces, and it makes running an app from start to finish as difficult as putting together IKEA furniture without instructions.

Symmetry DevOps™ however, makes things much easier and smoother when it comes to running and testing applications in the Test-Dev environment. Automation within Symmetry DevOps™ provides:

CONSISTENCY

The Test-Dev environment is an exact replica of your production environment with Symmetry DevOps. Applications can easily be pushed to the cloud which acts as the backbone for Test-Dev production. This means running the SDLC is easier and having less barriers than its physical, asymmetrical counterpart - not to mention reducing the complexity and the time it would waste. Consistency is key when you really want to get the best output from your apps.

HIGHER WORK LOAD CAPABILITIES

Due to automation, you can schedule refreshes with a double click of a button. This means pushing the app to the cloud, running it through the SDLC and then pulling the data back down to production in a fraction of the amount of time you would do it in a physical test-dev environment. With more time on your hands, more work flow can be pushed through the cloud.

OPPORTUNITY FOR ENHANCING PRODUCTION

Want to scrub and refresh your apps every 2 weeks? Or do you only need it done every three to four? You can schedule for refreshes at both the data and machine levels and then focus on other aspects of the business that need improving. With a consistent environment and higher workload capabilities, Symmetry DevOps provides opportunities for businesses to focus on enhancing their production. Less time is dedicated to fixing bugs and putting out fires, which means more time can be spent focusing on business impacting dev decisions.

Symmetry DevOps™ makes it all possible. Net3 Technology is dedicated to having high performance professionals walk you through exactly what you want and need when it comes to implementing your Test-Dev environment in the cloud.
